You're a really a mod? Or did your daddy just give you special account privileges including your very own log in name? You're clearly not the sharpest tool in the shed either. The point isn't how valuable the information is or what/what wasn't said in the thread. You took premium info from another site and brought it over to your own. Scott has plugged in sources, something, apparently you don't have. I mean you did drop that little "insignificant" over here. Well, I suppose I should give you credit for trying to analyze a 17 year old tweet and decifer what that was indicative of. Fine work.
Oh, and from experience when Schrader posts something like that he is almost always right. He isn't dumb enough to post what he heard or from who (particularly on out of state kids) and you gave him further reason not to. We all know what he said was gold and don't need an explanation. God forbid our mod jewels ever including a "well, I think recruit x may have meant this by this tweet...."

Gilmore Girls? Never heard of them but you seemingly know a thing or two about the show. Also, your username is Ducksworth. Let me guess, your childhood screen name was starwarsfan1. Also, not a flame but merely a thought/question... Shouldn't a 247 mod be getting their own information and not venturing over to ESPN to obtain it? And lastly, right or wrong, you still broke down a tweet by a 17 year old. Dude was probably in chemistry class and decided to tweet something. Be proud, you can be the Perez Hilton of the cfb recruiting world.

I didn't quote it and didn't do anything wrong. I summarized it. It's not my fault that it was only one sentence long. Plus, the fact that it had +21 is a clear indication of what I said. Also, I didn't take premium info from one site to the other - 247sports is one site. They share information.

So wait, let me get this straight.
Are you really saying that it is the policy of 24/7 that VIP info can be taken from one site and spread to every other site out there, simply because someone paraphrases the info instead of quoting it? But... if they quote it, that's not OK? That's kind of confusing, as it accomplishes the exact same thing.
If that's really the case, I think it's time for some reconnaissance on the Oregon site, haha.
edit: sorry, had to add that there is a clear difference between a VIP article, that a VIP from any site can read, and a VIP thread, which only VIP members of that site (and other mods, apparently) can read.

Legally, there is a huge difference between copying something word for word in its entirety and paraphrasing it. The article can be protected by copyright, while the general info can't. As for 247 policy, they can do whatever they want, but all useful VIP info leaks outside 247 very quickly anyway (just like with every other pay site). If I want to know a rumor on your VIP 247 board, I can usually go to a public board on another site for you or one of your rivals and find the info fairly quickly. This issue is being way overblown.

We're not talking in legalities here. I'm asking if it is 24/7's policy to let a mod hop from one board to the next, gathering VIP info, and returning to his home board to share all of it. That is quite contrary to the policy on almost every type of sports forum out there.
I'm not comparing what duckwhatever did to the above example, because what he did was pretty tame. I'm just wondering what the general policy is.

I'm not going to lie, a guy on this board, Rick Dearborn, predicted Shane Morris and Dymonte signing with us weeks before they happened. He seems to really know recruiting, especially the west coast. Rarely has he been wrong and all of us trust him, he's almost always right. He isn't dumb enough to post what he heard or from whom (particularly on out of state kids). Well, about a week ago, I asked him about Max Browne, and he told me not to spill the beans, but Max is rethinking his decision.

"Well, about a week ago, I asked him about Max Browne, and he told me not to spill the beans, but Max is rethinking his decision."
Didn't you lie when you agreed to not spill the beans about Max Browne?
After an abrupt change of mind by DeAnthony Thomas on the last recruiting weekend last year, nothing would surprise me.
Having said that, I find Ricks information to be a bit on the dubious side, considering the fact Max is recruiting strong for USC.
I believe he made 3-4 unofficial visits on his own dime, so it's not like he didn't make an informed decision.

Yes, it's being overblown in this issue because there wasn't much to share.
But if that act is OK under the policy actually in place, I'm going to have to convince some mods from the USC board to go snooping on every site out there (including this one) and report back with paraphrased notes.
